[@MyRedPony1]

I just love this song. I was there in '92 and '93. But for the past 22 years I've had my heart broken every September. Until this year. And this song is so much a part of it. I've forwarded, texted, tweeted, retweeted, and posted this song anywhere and everywhere I can. You did it, Adam. You absolutely captured the feelings of Blue Jays fans. I watch this as often as I can, at least 10 times during the day, and even more if I count listening to it during every commercial break during a game. Sometimes I'll play it while watching the game just so that I don't have to listen to Harold Reynolds' stupid comments. The last time a song did this to me was ... never, actually. I believe we will #TakeOctober. I also think that Rogers, Fox, or whoever is broadcasting the games should play the song during every 7th inning stretch. I guess what I'm trying to say is Thank You. #2015WorldSeriesChampions #GoJaysGo!
